[cap-talk] Google Chrome - web browser with sandboxed rendering

Apparently Google are developing a web browser called Chrome in which
each tab runs in a separate process, sandboxed at the OS level.

Unusually, the introductory material is in the form of a comic strip:
http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/index.html
- pages 25-31 cover sandboxing (I can't see a way to link to
individual pages).

Does anyone know any more details, such as how the sandboxing works on
Linux?
